Bill O’Reilly of Fox News and Keith Olbermann of MSNBC are in some sort of feud. O’Reilly used his Talking Points Memo, which Stephen Colbert has morphed into a segment called The Word on his Colbert Report that consistently leaves me in tears from laughing so hard, to whine about the treatment he’s getting from NBC. Olbermann responded with a point-by-point rebuttal. It’s also pretty damn funny, but the fact that we now have anchors from two different news networks spending air time doing this is really sad. The line between what’s happening on the Daily Show on Comedy Central and what Olbermann is doing on Countdown has become very thin or disappeared completely. No wonder I get all my news from the Internets.
